Creating a Shared Vision for a Community, presented by Marsha Murrington, And...craigslist_fndn
To create a vision for the future and long-term change in a community, it’s essential to have a strong, well-conceived community engagement plan and process that allows the voices within the community to be heard. Having outsiders and experts apply their values and preconceived notions of what a community needs is a recipe for failure. This session is led by three skilled change agents, with experiences working across boundaries in a variety of communities. They share their insights, stories, and approaches for bringing people of diverse backgrounds, cultures, and generations together to envision what they want their neighborhoods and communities to become, determine priorities, address problems and issues, and take greater responsibility for where they live, work, and play.

a city where home ownership, small business
development and cooperative economics, local
food sourcing, and access to education and the
arts are priorities of every neighborhood; and a
city where compassion and mercy define the
relationships of its residents.
